<p>especially the conversion from number to the 4.0 system</p>

<p>seems kinda high to me</p>

<p>anybody???</p>

3

<p>No. A = 4
B =3
C=2
D=1</p>

<p>There is no other way.</p>

<p>that’s not how our school does it, but then again our school’s system of GPA scaling is very messed up. Anyway, the most common method I hear on unweighted GPA [Note: drop all the plus and minues in your grades, so] A[90-100] =4.0; B[81-89] = 3.0; C[71-79] = 2.0; D[61-69] = 1.0 so yeah, and I definitely don’t like that chart because it’s impossible at my school to know that actual numerical grade, but w/e</p>

<p>hmm…my school does it differently too</p>

<p>A=100-93=4.0
A-=92-90=3.75
B+=89-87=3.5
B= 86-83=3.25
B-=82-80=3.0
C+=79-77=2.75
C=76-73=2.5
C-=72-70=2.25
D+=69-67=2.0
D=66-63=1.75
D-=62-61=1.5</p>

<p>of course, each of my teachers make their own grading scale, but for atleast 5/6 of the time, this is what you get. Some teachers start their As at 89%, some dont mess with the ± thing and do ABCDE…so it depends. Usually in our AP classes, thats when you see 89% As</p>

<p>so confused…my school uses purely numerical grades, but i was just trying to find a way to convert into the gpa system >_<</p>

<p>It’s just an estimation, but it works. </p>

<p>BTW, while A = 4, B = 3, etc, the Princeton Review thing is supposed to calculate your cumulative GPA.</p>
